Howlin: Fine Gael internal wrangling and dysfunctional Dáil puts country at risk

Ireland faces a situation as potentially dangerous as the economic crash of 2008, following Brexit, yet Fine Gael is engaged in internal warfare and the Dáil is the most dysfunctional it has ever been.

That was the view Labour Party leader Brendan Howlin gave in Cork yesterday.

The former minister also said he was not even sure the current Government would last until the end of this week, never mind see out a full term in office.
